Measure out the flour, baking powder, salt and rolled oats into a bowl.

Put
the butter and sugars into another bowl and beat together until creamy —
this is obviously easier with an electric mixer of some kind, but you
just need to put some muscle into otherwise — then beat in the egg and
vanilla.

Beat in the flour, baking powder, salt and oat mixture and then fold in the cranberries, chopped pecans and chocolate chips.

Roll
tablespoonfuls of dough into a ball with your hands, and then place
them on a lined or greased baking sheet and squish the dough balls down
with a fork. You may need two baking sheets or be prepared to make these
in two batches.

Bake for 15 minutes; when ready, the cookies will be
tinged a pale gold.
